animals are feeling living beings, they choose not to add to the suffering
by eating meat. Among tibetan buddhists, they more often do eat meat
because in tibet there are very poor agricultural conditions, and people
have to eat something. However in our present society where there is a
huge variety of vegetables available, it is not totally necessary to eat
meat to survive. I eat meat occasionally, but a lot less than I used to.
If it diminishes the suffering of living beings, it is a good thing. Of
course, since I am a type 2 diabetic, it isn't really advisable to go veggie
all the way because it would be too heavy on the carbs.
Dinner last evening:
Saute' about one small head of fresh garlic (peeled and chopped) in olive
oil in a large frypan till it just begins to cook through, but NOT to turn
brown.
Add 1/2 cup of Marsala wine, 1/2 cup of water, and one chicken bouillion
cube.
Add about 1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes and a 1/4 tsp of Oregano.
Add two bunches of Broccoli Rabe to the pan which has been washed, and cut
into 2 inch pieces, cover the pan and simmer till tender.
Meanwhile; boil 1/2 lb of Barilla Plus whole wheat pasta in salt water.
Drain the pasta and toss it into the pan with the Rabe and garlic etc.
Toss to coat all the pasta and serve.. with a generous amount of Parmigiano
Reggiano, shaved over the dish.

What do you do for protein? I tried tofu and couldn't handle the
texture. I like Mexican food, and thus the beans, but, I can't eat
that if I'm expecting company. I probably eat more salad than most
people and I usually include some cheese and sometimes chopped eggs so
I get some protein there. Do you feel you get enough protein?
Btw, I tried something new. (for me anyway) 9 days ago I bought some
lettuce and this time I soaked it in cold water for about an hour.
Then I removed the core and as much of the thick white part as I
could. Then I put it in a zip lock baggie and now, 9 days later, it is
still fresh and crispy and has no brown spots. I know others have been
doing this for some time but it's the first time for me. From this
point on I will always do this.
